I've no idea about the value of this badge, I don't even know whether it's OK or not (as I mentioned above, I've seen pictures of this badge in almost any gold-silver combination wings-handle-wreath-shield-blade except the one in the post). However, it seems like (according to Krubl's book) that observer badges lacks the wreath, pilot's and letovod (air traffic control?) badges comes with the wreath. I'm sorry I can't be of more assistance.

thank you, jonas. i've found a similar badge on ebay for (approximately) US $40.

Hello Befehl227!

The pattern are the one used 1968-1992, but I can't find the exact match (silver blade, the rest gold) in my copy of Krubl's Ceskoslovenske & Ceske Vojenske Odznaky.

regards

stefan

gents, is this a post ww2 observer badge? and is it worth (let's say) 20 €? any additional infos about the abdge?

I could use some expert opinions here...

Real or fake? Are the numbers okay for this type/variation?

Regards,

Stefan

It's a forgery, Wlodzimierz!

If the price is okay...I will try my luck!

Thanks for the assistance, Ferdinand! :beer:

That was fast, hehehe...

What about the order? It`s a little bit confusing that the star on the reverse is also "gold-plated" on some points!

Thank you for the photos, Ferdinand!

P.S. Which scanner do you use?

P.P.S. If you look at "my" order you can see that the star on the reverse is also "gold-plated". That`s a little bit disturbing, if you ask me.

Do you have any other photos of this type? Just to compare the photos!

Here is a photo of the obverse, Ferdinand.

I?ve already asked the seller for better photos/scans. Here they are.

Shouldn`t the numbers be smaller?

Gents, I need your help! What do you think about this one?

Major comrade Korchev arose with his entire stature from the entrenchment and with a voice full of will and confidence he shouted: "Comrades, not a step back! We will die, but not retreat!"

Uraaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Just awsome!

Looks like the signature of Aleksandar Rankovic (on the left side)!

Let's hope that all forgeries will look like this one!

And even the street still exists...

The St Sava grand cross, grand officer and commander badges range from 78x48mm to 91x52mm, so at 80x50mm it seems to be one of those.

Soooo..."my" order could be a 3rd, 2nd or even a 1st class?

I've bought this Sveti-Sava Order on an online-auction a few days ago. At first I thought it is a 4th class...but now...holding the order in my hands...I know that it can't be a 4th class Sava. So, which class is it?

Dimensions: (From the top of the crown/the cross) ca.80mm x 50 mm

I always rather faniced picking up one of the "maiden" varieties but never did & I would imagine theyre a bit too costly for me now.

Do you mean this medal? Indeed, they ARE expensive!

Is it true that the small(er) medal was issued only in the 1st Balkan War?

I've never saw a document before! Thank you, K2009! :)

Excellent photos, Emanuel & Sasa! *thumbsup*

Sehr schoen Herr Befehl

Super komad, svaka cast ;-)

Hvala Luka! ;)

Is the order made of solid gold?
